Bit peeved

brother and wife going to Malvern so thought i'd go to as they are
staying with me overnight before they head off down the motorway.
Went online to buy a ticket, wghich i duly did, special one whole pound
off if you are an RHS member. Fine but at the VERY end after you have
paid and they confirm it there's a notice that says £2,00 surcharge on
all bookings.
I mean to say, why on earth don't they say so upfront or vene just
charge you the extra two blinking pounds on the ticket cost?

I know it's not much more but i wouldn't be very happy if i got to the
door of Waitrose or Tesco and i was asked for another couple of pounds,
having paid the bill already.

Years since we "did" that show, lovely setting. I remember driving there is
bright sunshine and as we got out of the car the heavens opened and it
didn't stop all day!

They all do that though, recently wanted to buy a present for someone and
found the seemingly difference in price was often overturned by the postage
charges e.g one said £35 and free shipping another £29 but when I got well
into the checkout process a £6 postage charge appeared.
